As gripping as it is thought-provoking, Without Prejudice is a masterfully written novel about race, loyalty, buried truths and the devastating consequences of misplaced trust.

____________
Late one night, Robert Danziger receives an unexpected call from Duval Morgan – the childhood friend he hasn’t seen in more than twenty years.
Convicted of the brutal rape and assault of a young nurse, Duval has spent decades behind bars in an Illinois state penitentiary. Now, he’s finally free.
Reluctantly, Robert agrees to meet him. What he doesn’t expect is Duval’s unwavering claim of innocence.
As Duval slowly becomes part of the Danzigers’ lives – charming Robert’s wife Anna and forming an unsettling bond with their young daughter Sophie – Robert’s unease begins to grow. Is Duval truly the victim of a terrible miscarriage of justice, or is he manipulating the people closest to Robert for reasons of his own?
When Anna, a lawyer, decides to reopen Duval’s case, Robert struggles to support her – though he can’t fully explain why. But just as Anna uncovers evidence that could change everything, Duval vanishes without a trace.
And the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes.
